Help needed badly

:confused:

Hello peeps,

I really have no choice but to turn here for help, i have been trying to figure out the concepts of multi-threading, AWT and Swing, but i just couldnt derive a method on how to integrate all of them.

i'm doing a project in which i have completed 2 task, the last task is a tedious one.

it says that i need to create 3 java threads, and each thread uses an input-dialogue box to ask a user for a word, it then reports whether or not the typed word is part of a text file. The thread terminated once a user types in the word 'Finish'. Based on above i need to write a java program.

I have developed the algorithm to search the word, but i really can't find a way to integrate the codes, AWT/Swing and the threads together

i wonder any seasoned java programmers can give me some guidelines so i'm able to code out the program based on the guidelines.

Thank you very much for the any much appreciated help rendered
